Hand, Foot and Mouth Disease Explained
Hand, foot and mouth disease is a frequent viral infection, mainly in young children, that causes fever, painful mouth ulcers and a blister-like rash on the palms and soles. It is normally mild and clears up on its own within 7 to 10 days. It is not related to foot-and-mouth disease in cattle.
Causes and Risk Factors
Coxsackievirus A16 and enterovirus A71 are the usual viruses. Contact with saliva, blister fluid, droplets or stools passes them on, which is why kids’ clubs, nurseries and shared pools are hotspots. The illness starts 3 to 6 days after exposure and adults can catch it as well.
